Hi Benjamin,

I'm probably one of two people using Rails who really cares about the little annoyances that come with choosing to use primary key field names of tablename_id. :) I don't know if it's 1.1 worthy, but I would like some feedback on http://dev.rubyonrails.org/ticket/ 3373 -- specifically, what would the preferred location be for a globally-accessible way to get the primary key field name based on ActiveRecord::Base.primary_key_prefix_type. This comes up not only when generating fixtures (the subject of that patch), but also with schema dump and migrations.

I have other patches that I use for schema dumping and migrations that improve the support for ActiveRecord::Base.primary_key_prefix_type, so it wouldn't take me long to add some tests and submit a patch if I had a pointer on where that case statement would best reside.

I guess I'm the other one. :-) I run into SQLite databases that use that convention, so I'd use this fix if it were available...
